Privatization and mental health in massachusetts

Abstract The privatization of public services and utilities is a worldwide phenomenon reflecting trans‐national corporate hegemony and a shift of investment capital from productive to financial sources of profit. In one state, the privatization of mental health services was associated with the destruction of community mental health capacities and inpatient care for the seriously and persistently mentally ill.
